soggy socks soaked
from a mourning spree
through dew incased blades
sap stained skin
i remember that feeling
to the top I climbed
swaying, squeezing limbs
to keep from falling
apart, years before
they chopped down her canopy
steel swinging, blades buzzing
still screaming, lost loving
a pine colored void
auburn needles sink deep
into the earth, one day
we will be together again
